Bab 741: Chapter 741: AvR

"Wait… what?"

There have been many times Aerith found herself suddenly being surrounded by silence, most of the time by force as the weight of her responsibility to the world echoes through her ears.

Diana, however, carried the grief and guilt differently—Diana never truly grieved for her people. She wailed and cried, for sure. But that was regret.

Regret that she could not save her people, even though she tried her best for more than a thousand years. And so, right now, with a small glimpse of a candle being lit up in her hands, she wanted to rush and see if what the clone said was true.
